Child Advocacy Law Clinic

The clinic provides an in-depth, interdisciplinary experience working with problems of child abuse and neglect and of children in foster care. Students taking this clinic represent children, parents, or the Department of Human Services in court cases that may be located in Washtenaw, Genesee, Wayne, or Livingston counties. Three clinical law faculty who are specialists in child advocacy law, supervise up to eight students each and act as advisers, but clinic students make the decisions about their cases. You must telephone first for a referral. No walk-ins, please.
